Join us for the Annual Emergency Chaplains 5K & 10K! Experience the peaceful American Tobacco Trail as you run or walk to raise money for Emergency Chaplains. Emergency Chaplains is a nonprofit that serves the First Responders in Durham. The course will start and finish at the American Tobacco Trail.
A virtual run is similar to a regular run, except rather than having everyone run on the same day/time, we are allowing everyone to run the race any time during the month of November (Nov. 1st - 30th). This helps us comply with the guidelines set in place for gatherings and social distancing. What does that mean?
The Deadline to Sign up is November 30th
Where is the Pre-Set Course?
We will still be running on the American Tobacco Trail. Although, we will be starting in a new location. We've chosen a location with public parking access. Parking is available at the intersection of Morehead Avenue and Blackwell Street. The race will start and finish at this intersection to provide easy access to parking.

Do I Have to Run the Pre-Set Course?
No! You can choose to run the 5K or 10K wherever you'd like. But, if you choose to not run the pre-set course, your time will NOT be counted for the Best Time awards.
Can I Run with a Team?
Right now we are not registering teams. If this changes, we will update that information here.
